"[Quartets has] the impeccably consistent wrap of surround sound for music done right. The sound only matters because the music is strong...Pintchik is an intelligent, tasteful pianist who has carefully configured a complete, varied, nuanced album...her best attributes are her sensitivity with ballads and her creative reimagining of standards, strengths that often coincide."
JazzTimes (review of Quartets by Tom Conrad)

"[Pintchik] is a subtle performer who probes deeply and phrases well."
"...the recording is a revelation. It's delicate, detailed, refined and atmospheric."
Enjoythemusic.com (review of Quartets by Phil Gold)

"...one of the most important albums of the year..."
"If 'vivid' was the word that best expressed my impressions of the debut
album [So Glad To Be Here], 'stunning' is the one I use to describe her sophomore effort."

"Her sound is gorgeous and reflective..."
"Even the up tempo standards are transformed into soulful morsels. Just beautiful."
"Equal to the musicians and musicality is the recording. Stunning!"

"Leslie Pintchik brings a crystalline touch and impressive chops to her second CD as a leader...a comer with significant piano wisdom."
Jazz Society of Oregon (review of Quartets)

"'Happy Days Are Here Again' [begins] with an aura of hushed wonder...
The closing standard, 'Somewhere,' is a standout... Pintchik's treatment of the melody reflects the yearning quality of the Bernstein-Sondheim song in its original setting... But on the final 'somewhere,' she shifts its accent to create the instrument-mimicking introductory figure of Baden-Powell’s 'Berimbau,' ending the piece in a joyful Brazilian groove."
AllAboutJazz.com (review of Quartets by Virginia A. Schaefer)

"Whether on standards or originals, Leslie's keyboard work is masterful & unique...This is a great album, especially for those listeners who love piano that seems to be played from the inside!...MOST HIGHLY RECOMMENDED...Simply wonderful!"
Improvijazzation Nation (review of Quartets by Rotcod Zzaj)

"Leslie Pintchik and Scott Hardy play
miraculous music - in tune in all ways. And you can quote me on that."
Red Mitchell

"I love the CD. The very first sound
kept my attention All the Way. I loved the tunes and I loved
the playing."
Jim Hall (about an earlier demo CD entitled Completely)
